A phenomenon where a generation of
humans makes the same crippling decisions as the generation before them. Examples include:
1) having kids, because your
parents, aunts, uncles and most everyone else in your family had them, most likely at an early age, thus minimizing their chance to live a life they actually wanted and now are living a life to serve their offspring. And your
parents are pressuring you for grandchildren, even though you are barely making ends meet for yourself, what with working full time and being a full-time student.
2) Not saving for a retirement, rainy day, etc. Instead, you spend your money on a new pair of shoes every month, clothes, Amazon, eBay, and thinking paying $2600 for a
one bedroom apartment for the rest of your life is OK. When you find yourself unemployed and broke, you
lame everyone but yourself.
Sean just can't stop having
kids. 28 years old and already he has 4
kids with 3 different women. This generational curse is going to leave him just
like his dad: living paycheck to paycheck, making just enough to get by, trying to feed a small army of his offspring.
